I prefer to shock the hell out of them unexpectedly. This way they learn the hard way which is always the best way. Stop coddling people. That what's wrong with the country today. No pain, no gain. Who cares if someone is 'offended'. Welcome to the real world. I do though like your idea of warning those with 'strong religious beliefs' to stay away. That would be refreshing. So after thinking this over, you have my support. I think it is a good idea. Well stated. Go for it!

The problem with putting up a disclaimer like this is that its very existence implies that we give a rat's ass whether someone else is offended. I don't believe that to be the case.
